How to Get Fortnite on Android (Galaxy S7, S8, S9 or Note 8)

You see, the game won’t be available across the entire Android ecosystem straight way. For now, The Fortnite Battle Royale will make it’s official debut on the Samsung devices first.

So if you have a Galaxy S7, Galaxy S8, Galaxy S9, Tab 3, Tab 4, Note 8 or maybe even the unreleased Note 9 then you can download the game right now and start playing.

You’ll need to wait if you’re with any other Android phone for the time being as Fortnite is working on getting the app onto other devices. I will update this article as soon as Fortnite is announced for other Android devices.

But for now, in this guide I’ll show you how to get Fortnite on Android if you’re a Galaxy user.

Step 4: The Fortnite Installer will need access to photos, media, and files on your Galaxy device, so grant those permissions by tapping on ALLOW on the popup. The game will begin to download on your device.

Step 5: Finally, just tap LAUNCH. You can proceed to crank up Drake’s “In My Feelings” whilst you hit those Fortnite dance moves.

That’s it!

You’ll find that you have two new apps on your Galaxy device —Fortnite Installer and Fortnite. Of course the one with the Fortnite is the actual game and since you have now already installed it, you can go ahead and choose to delete the Fortnite Installer. I recommend that you keep the Fornite Installer since you can continue to receive game updates. It’s up to you.

Oh! Here’s a handy tip …

Once you’ve downloaded the game from Galaxy Apps, you can add the Fortnite game to your Game Launcher which will allow you to take advantage of performance boosting.
